Do any of you own an iPod?

I'm also a Pod Person.
My wife and I both have a 3rd generation 40GB iPod. She uses it for teaching purposes (she's a professional guitarist who also teaches lessons) and I use it at work to block out distracting noise which I'm doing graphic design and layout.

First of all, this is usually the best place to get iPods.
The video iPod will hold about 7500 4 minute songs and also displays pictures and videos.
I have a little utility that will rip video from DVDs for the iPod and you can also buy TV shows from iTunes.
They are great for audiobooks and podcasts as well.
They also have extras like a calendar that syncs with your computer calendar and you can also put on your address book.
you can find out all about them at apple.com/ipod
BTW, if you just want something simple to play back music and audiobook etc, check out the iPod mini. You can get them on the refurb site for $139.
They hold 1000 4 minutes songs. They don't have a color display though.

Is there a major difference between buying at an Apple dealer and at Amazon?
What is a Podcast?
What do you mean by rip video?
Am I really behind the times or what?
Joseph Botwinick
The reason for buying from the link that I showed you is that those are all Apple Certified REconditioned units.
They carry the same 1 yeat warrantee as the new ones.
They look just like brand new and you can't tell the difference but you get them at a lower cost.
A Podcast is a downloadable audio file like a radio program. The difference is that you can listen anytime you want rather than waiting on the specific time for the show.
A lot of Churches are now "podcasting" their sermons because it is essentially free and it is a great way to distribute.
Ripping video just means that you take a disc and "rip" tracks from it.
Normally it referes to ripping tracks from an audio CD.
You could play the songs from the CD right on the iPod but by converting them to an "mp3" file, they take up much less room while still sounding good.
The same goes for video now...
Hey, the iPod has only been around since 01.....taken over quite well in that short amount of time!

Dale,
I think I am beginning to understand now. Thanks. Can I record stuff on it like a recorder?

Joseph, if you want to record, then get the full size iPod, you don't have to get the video one, the regular ones they have on the refurb store should be fine. But they do not come with a mic. You get a little mic attachement that pops onto the top and then it adds a recording menu to the interface.
BTW, you are a teacher aren't you?
Do you use a Mac or PC?
